Central Park fizzled out after taking the lead in the opening minutes and despite leveling the scoreline shortly after the restart, they had no answer with 2 goals from the opposition as their 3 game winning run came to an abrupt end.

Sharks were down to barebones for the game but a quick counter saw them taking the lead after just 10 minutes into the game with Isaac catching the custodian off his line. The lead though was shortlived after some comical defending from the team and just as quickly, they found themselves down by 1-2. The game which saw the Sharks changing their front-line on a couple of occasions during the half meant that chances were at a premium as the team went into half-time down by a 1-2. The second-half saw the Sharks pushing further upfront and they were quickly rewarded after a backpass was intercepted by Isaac and he made no mistake from six yard with a thumping finish. Kit had a glorious chance to give his team the lead shortly afterwards but he failed to connect to a pin-point Isaac's cross from the right which He chose to placed it first time rather than via the conventional header. On the other end, yet another poor defending allowed the opposition winger to squirm his way into the box, sidefooting Michael and into the empty net. The opposition though wasn't finished as they thumped another via the freekick taking the score to 4-2. Sharks could have narrowed the deficit shortly but Heng Li's looping shot over the custodian went inches wide. Tried as they might, the lethargic looking Sharks had no way back into the game.

The manager commented, 'Two weeks in a row, the defending was just poor and while we escaped the gallows last weekend, this weekend, there were just no messiah.
